We Demand Transparency and Justice for CHEN-WEI LIU. @playpokemon My friend, CHEN-WEI LIU, discovered that his RK9 account had been transferred to another email address without his knowledge or authorization. This raised serious concerns that his qualification for the 2026 Pokémon World Championships may have been used by someone else without his consent. We have obtained photographic evidence showing that the Player ID (PID) associated with I-HSIANG CHANG in the 2026 World Championships records is identical to the PID originally registered and used by CHEN-WEI LIU in 2024: 5283777. Furthermore, eyewitnesses have reported seeing I-HSIANG CHANG at the tournament venue. Based on the evidence we have gathered, we have strong grounds to question whether I-HSIANG CHANG used CHEN-WEI LIU's account and World Championships qualification without his authorization. The evidence raises serious questions about how CHEN-WEI LIU's Player ID became associated with another individual's tournament records and whether his qualification was used without his consent. However, what makes this situation even more concerning is that CHEN-WEI LIU proactively reported the unauthorized account transfer, requested an investigation, and sought clarification — only to receive an indefinite suspension from Play! Pokémon. On September 20, 2026, he contacted Play! Pokémon Support to report the unauthorized RK9 account transfer. On October 16, 2026, he received an official disciplinary notice imposing an indefinite suspension under Section 4.3 of the Play! Pokémon Standards of Conduct. The suspension prevents him from participating in Play! Pokémon events, whether as a competitor or even as a spectator. Why is a player who reported an unauthorized account transfer and actively sought the truth now the one facing disciplinary action? As his friend, I urge TPCI (The Pokémon Company International) to address the following concerns: 1. Provide a Full Explanation of What Happened How was CHEN-WEI LIU's RK9 account transferred to another email address without his authorization? Who requested the transfer, and what identity verification procedures were followed before the change was approved? This raises serious concerns regarding account security, identity verification, and the protection of personal information. We ask TPCI to investigate these issues thoroughly and provide a clear explanation of its findings, to the extent permitted by privacy and confidentiality requirements. 2. Thoroughly Investigate the Use of His World Championships Qualification Why does I-HSIANG CHANG appear in 2026 World Championships records associated with the exact same Player ID that was originally assigned to CHEN-WEI LIU in 2024? We ask TPCI to examine the complete Player ID records, account transfer history, qualification records, tournament registrations, and check-in information. The purpose is to establish who accessed and used the account and qualification, whether any unauthorized activity occurred, and who was responsible. The photographic evidence of the matching Player IDs deserves a clear and substantive explanation. 3. Reassess the Indefinite Suspension CHEN-WEI LIU was the individual who proactively reported the account transfer and requested an investigation. We ask TPCI to determine whether he personally committed or knowingly authorized any violation, rather than attributing potential unauthorized actions by another individual to him. If the alleged misconduct cannot be substantiated as actions personally committed or knowingly authorized by CHEN-WEI LIU, we request that his indefinite suspension be withdrawn and his disciplinary record corrected. We are not asking for special treatment. We are asking for the truth, accountability, and justice for CHEN-WEI LIU. A player should not be subjected to severe disciplinary action simply because their account may have been misused by someone else, especially when individual responsibility has not been clearly established. We believe that account security, fair investigations, and transparent disciplinary procedures are essential to maintaining trust in competitive Pokémon. This case deserves a thorough review, a substantive response, and a fair resolution. Full Timeline and Supporting Evidence: We have compiled the relevant Player ID comparisons, tournament photographs, account-related correspondence, and disciplinary documentation into a dedicated evidence timeline. We encourage TPCI and the Pokémon community to review the available evidence: pokemon-event-timeline-2026.… We sincerely ask the Pokémon community to help raise awareness by sharing this statement and encouraging TPCI to address these concerns.
